It has stopped raining and is currently sunny in Santa Cruz

True - but Pinns got rain in the last hour - .40 since midnight.  Looks like we won't be climbing on our climbing anniversary tomorrow

Is it just me, or do your posts seem somehow older, maybe more mature?

No-one picked up on the clue. Which, admittedly wasn't a very strong clue.

Our illustrious youngster turned 30 on Friday. He'll never again be half my age.

Man, Santa Cruz dried out today.....I bet Pinns needs a day to dry.
Tempting!

XMas eve looks nice

Yesterday from 5:30am to 11:30pm the gauge showed .49 inches of rain at Pinns.
Looks like the sun is shining pretty good so far today.
There is still a 20% chance of light rain today and the high is only forecast to be 51.
High of 48 tamale with more rain overnight and 90% chance of rain on Christmas Day.
Looks like we may get some sunny days with highs in the low 50's for a while after that.

Unless I've got your age listed wrong on my calendar...he'll never be half your age.
He's half my age.

He's half my age.

You might have it wrong.

He was half my age from December 22, 2018 (he had been 29 for two days and I turned 58 that day), until December 20, 2019 (I was still 58 and he turned 30).

He's now half your age until April 5, 2020.

Either way, he's still a punk (a tall punk).

Why?

[BAP]

Brian is half of my age from 12/20/2015 till 6/20/2016, he was 26, and I was 52.

Why did Cindy fall off the swing?

I resemble that comment

[JC w KC redux]

Why did Cindy fall off the swing?

No idea. Why did she?

[clink]

She had no arms.

Knock knock

[JC w KC redux]

She had no arms.

Knock knock

That's not even slightly funny.

Who's there?

[clink]

Not Cindy

[NOAL]

Where did her arms go

[clink]

 Must've ran into someone very disarming, or maybe bought her x a chainsaw?

 Next year we should all go caroling at the Eastside employee housing. 

[NOAL]

It's ok. Maybe Cindy can still climb squeeze chimneys.

I tried to add a correction number 44 just now, but the site won't let me modify my post. Is this only a problem for sticky threads? Or just the corrections sticky thread?

Earlier this morning I made a small modification to the route description for Grin and Bear It and that worked smoothly.

Hoping that the site Gods can fix these issues, including the weirdness that seems to result from apostrophes in, at least, lists (look at the new routes list for example).

Meanwhile, here's correction number 44, which I will add to the main list if and when it is possible to do so:

44. Change, page 231 (route 577, Clean Sweep): There are obvious signs that many holds have broken off of this route. And the climbing on it is no longer 5.8. In the new book, this route will be rated 5.10a (no stars) and the topo will show that rating above the second bolt. This 5.10a is current, but depends a lot on one "flake top" hold that flexes, but which should be there for a while unless someone pulls out on it.

I tried to modify the message after "un-sticky" the message, and I also got the 500 error. So that has nothing to do with it.

I don't know much, but one thing I know is there are no site Gods, not here at least. Site janitors more likely, but a janitor will not be able to fix a crumbling pre-historic outhouse perched precariously on an unstable hill side. She's been shoving rocks under exposed posts here and there.
